Another year And in two hours I can officially be 20 Another birthday Happy birthday to me. Finally a year When a loved one doesn't leave me behind Or I get pushed aside for bigger things- And I'm not stuck in bed With the flu or chicken pocks.... Nope This time I'm kept in bed by my mind And thoughts stirring in it for quite some time So smothering and decayed I can't even write them- I'm celebrating a birthday of a person I don't even know- The presents I'm not even looking forward to... What I wouldn't give for a family reunion Or the flu So I couldn't think and judge what I've done... Yep... Happy birthday to me.
Reason for writing:
It's my birthday, but fortunately, these thoughts are not 100% autobiographical.
Birth sign: Gemini
